I am going to tell you something you’ve probably not heard before.
You’re planning all wrong.
There are a lot of planners out there and we all, including myself at one point, try to find just the right one, get bored, find more, print more, and yet, seem to be unfulfilled in our purchase; and still unorganized.
It’s because the way you are planning is only subconsciously, stressing you out. Most women only stress importance on organizing their to-dos, not their life as a whole. Most women only organize and try to harness, in a pretty fashion, their tasks and endless kids activities, not live off their scripted mission statement and goals for their lives and family.
We were meant for more, ladies. YOU were meant for more than merely being an expert at organizing your to-do list. In motherhood, we have the awesome responsibility to become managers of the home and raising our children. This is something we can’t afford to take lightly and simply reduce our CEO status to task and activity, expert. I want to inspire you and encourage you to change the way you look at planning your life.
In my eBook, A Fresh Idea on Organizing Your Life, you’ll find how you can change your thinking from task expert to a true life planner. This eBook on getting organized in a fresh new way, is for all mothers, no matter what season in life. Every woman can benefit from this book!
scripted. “Then the LORD answered me and said: ‘Write the vision and
make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it’.” (Habakkuk
2:20) I have found this scripture to be of great importance; reminding
me to prayerfully write things down rather than trying to remember
everything on my own. Because of the importance of staying organized as a
stay-at-home homeschooling mother, using planners has been a wonderful
and necessary tool in my life.
The Planner Perfect is unlike any planner that I have ever used in the
past. It is truly a breath of fresh air that I know will help me out
with planning many wonderful thins to come in the new year. It is well
written, well organized, keeps God at the center of your planning, and
very simple to understand. The beautiful thing about Jenny’s eBook is
that it teaches you how to become a master life planner, taking control
of your own scheduling, rather than being held captive by your schedule.
fashioned the planner around the influence of her precious Proverbs 31
mother and the example she modeled while Jenny was growing up. Rather
than the typical “task manager” planning, the Planner Perfect is a place
where you create your life and can dream up new things birthed in
freedom, rather than being tied down by an impossible to-do-list.
setting is the simple fact that it is more about dreaming and living
life than about the legalistic aspect of making lists to “check” off.
While lists do serve their purpose, the Planner Perfect gives you a
whole new understanding about the importance of not overbooking yourself
and family. This new “mindset” will help anyone who has been giving
their calendar too much control in their life plans.
